… Swift’s team worked around the major studios—represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, or AMPTP, in the ongoing labor negotiations—altogether when it came to producing and releasing Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour. The film was self-funded, with Swift reportedly spending $10 to $20 million to produce it and her parents working directly with AMC Theaters on distribution. … Though Swift’s film may not do Barbie numbers, she is set to break even more records when it opens next month. Already, it’s on track to make up to $100 million in its first weekend—and could open as high as $145 million, according to BoxOffice.com. That’s unprecedented for a concert film, and would put it in the top five theatrical openings this year.

        Perfect is the enemy of good.

        Let’s appreciate good choices, instead of criticizing people for not being better.

          The good choice is her making a shitload of money, not really hard life decisions we are talking about here. This just suits her wallet and her brand, she isn’t a saint. Should I clap whenever she recycles?

            She’s making money while also supporting the right cause (strikers).

            We shouldn’t be against people making money. We should be against exploitation.

            Lol no. And you’re right: she ISN’T a saint. I’m just confused by the people who get mad because she’s not saving the world single-handedly.

            How so? I strongly believe most people who loudly decry the habits of the rich would behave the exact same way if they were born into another family.

            I’ll go further: I believe most folks who strongly hold these positions would behave as the rich do now, even if they came into money as adults, after forming these opinions.

            Most people are hypocrites that haven’t had the chance to go back on their positions yet/ever.

              You’re probably not wrong. Which is sort of the point. There need to be rules/laws in place to stop human nature from making life horrible for regular people so a few assholes can exploit them.

              I strongly believe

              those are the beliefs of a pig, you shouldn’t brag about how strongly you hold onto them

                Ok future jet traveler!

                I’m sure your live as an ascetic, not impacting climate with whatever luxuries you currently afford. I’m sure if you got a better job there would be NOTHING you start doing that you hadn’t before. A vacation, nicer food, some new clothes, run the air conditioning more, nope! Not for you!

                My opinion is backed by data, as societies gain more expendable income they tend to eat more meat, and take more trips further away from home. This is not a unique American thing, this happens everywhere. Using a private jet is just the end of the road of that behavior
